Improved Method to Predict Salmonella Heat Inactivation

Estimating Salmonella Inactivation in Low Moisture Foods

HACCP Salmonella Smarter Food Safety

20 Nov 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

A new modelling approach to estimate Salmonella inactivation in low-moisture foods under non-isothermal elevated-heat conditions involves tracking temperature changes in real-time and applying sequential kinetic modelling.

Using Microbial Ecology to Strengthen HACCP Sanitation Controls

Factors Influencing Sanitizer Effectiveness

HACCP Journal Club Sanitizers

18 Nov 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

Yadav et al. (2025) assessed how the multi-stage sanitation process impacts microbial populations in a large commercial beef-processing facility by tracking total aerobic counts, Enterobacteriaceae/coliforms, and microbial composition via sequencing.

Rapid Serotyping of Salmonella via MALDI-TOF and Machine Learning

Serotyping Salmonella Using MALDI-TOF and AI

Artifical Intelligence Journal Club MALDI-TOF

05 Nov 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

Study shows that combining MALDI-TOF MS with machine learning (XGBoost) can accurately identify Salmonella serotypes. This combined approach might soon provide diagnostic labs with a rapid and cost-effective approach to resolving Salmonella serotypes.

A Defined Microbial Consortium Replicates Fine-flavor Chocolate Fermentation Traits

Precision Fermentation Produces Fine Chocolate Flavour

Journal Club

03 Nov 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

A rationally defined, 7-member microbial consortium assembled from isolated yeast and bacterial strains found during spontaneous cocoa fermentation was found to faithfully reproduce the chemical, sensory, and microbiological attributes of traditional fine-flavor chocolate.

Campylobacter in the Domestic Kitchen: Breaking Bad Habits

How Domestic Kitchen Behaviour Can Influence Campylobacter Spread

Campylobacter Journal Club

08 Oct 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

Campylobacter is the leading cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in Europe. Improper handling of raw chicken - boosts Campylobacter cross-contamination risk in the kitchen; replacing cutting boards or knives was found to reduced pathogen transfer by 57–75%.

Seeds and Blossoms as Gateways: Internalization of Enteric Pathogens into Fresh Produce

Enteric Pathogens in Fresh Produce

E. coli E. coli inc VTEC/STEC Enterobacteriaceae

08 Oct 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Typhimurium were inoculated onto lettuce and cucumber plants. The pathogens were frequently detected internally, indicating that these routes may allow entry into edible tissues and persist through harvest.

Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase–Producing ESKAPE-Es Detected in Fresh Produce Farms

Extended Spectrum ESKAPE Es

Antibiotic Resistance ESKAPE Pathogens Journal Club

08 Oct 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

A survey of smallholder farms in South Africa identified frequent contamination with extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)- and AmpC-producing Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa - informal farming systems may serve as reservoirs for multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Is the Raw Milk Movement Posing A Dangerous Zoonotic Threat?

Zoonotic Risk of Avian Flu in Raw Milk

Avian Influenza Dairy Journal Club

15 Sep 2025 Lora Benoit Ph.D

The crossover of avian influenza A(H5N1) to dairy cattle and the recovery of virus in milk from infected cows pose a risk for human transmission. Whilst pasteurization is known to inactivate the virus, the increasing popularity of raw milk consumption has led to concerns.
